MONTREAL, QC, April 23, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Advantech Satellite Equipment, a product division of Advantech Advanced Microwave Technologies Inc., a world-leading provider of wireless broadband communications, announces today that it has officially launched its comprehensive line of revamped Block-Up Converters (BUCs). Fully operational across C, X, Ku and Ka-band frequencies, these are the industry's highest power density BUCs in terms of RF power per pound, without degradation in MTBF or performance.
The design of these units is based on Advantech's industry proven reliable solid-state high power amplifiers. The BUCs built-in design features and assembly methods coupled with efficient combining techniques result in a device with exceptional linearity and operating efficiency. The use of high-efficiency power supply and conservative thermal designs contribute to the trouble-free operation of the unit.
The high power and high linearity allows for higher data rates and higher modulation rates as specified by DVB-S2 standard. This translates in reduced OPEX cost, as the user needs less satellite bandwidth in order to transmit.
'Our Block-Up Converters are the smallest fully integrated BUC units available on the market today. Compared to the previous generation of SSPAs, the weight and energy consumption has been reduced by at least 50% to 60%. In addition, these BUCs encompass enhanced features like Ethernet monitoring and control port and auto-ranging power supply 110/220 VAC with Power factor Correction.'
- Cristi Damian, Vice-President of Engineering
Advantech Block-Up converters are presently being deployed for Government and Military programs, as well as in the Broadcast industry via a number of Satellite News Gathering Service (SNG) integrators.
Our full line of Block-Up Converters conform to CE certification and are available for delivery.
